Hi! I am a newbie to blog writing. I just want to know how my blog will get comments and how other come to know about my blog?
Keep posting good informative articles so you will get direct traffic from search engine. The search engines are big source of getting targeted users. You also can ping your post on social bookmarking site. like digg and twitter.
You can share your blog with lot of social media sites like facebook, stumbleupon, digg, technorati etc, along with press release sites & directory submissions as well, you will definately get good amount of visitors for your blog. Good Luck........
1. Update you blog regularly 2. Generate the RSS Feed for the blog. 3. Promote your blog through the social Bookmarking Sites.
Congrats on starting with your blog! Well, apart from a great content in your blog, you can read other blog posts and in case you like the write up be generous enough to say a few positive sentences on their article and leave your signature in the comment space ( adding yourblogxxx.blogspot.com) in the website column. By doing this the other blog author after seeing your quality comment would want to read your posts as well. So go ahead and do this.. And perhaps let us know if its working out! Take care!
try to join online blogger communities and get to know the bloggers/and blogs that shares the same niche with yours.. through that, you can expand your connections.. It's one step to get traffic to your site
You need to promote your blog rigorously... Some tips for this, - Guest blogging : Find out your niche related popular blogs and approach them to get your posts published there. - Blog commenting : Find some popular blog (obviously related to your niche) and leave your valuable comments with anchor text pointing to your own blog - Submit your blog to Blog directories - Create RSS feeds and submit it to RSS feed directories - Submit your posts to social bookmarking websites - Leverage the power of social networking websites (Publish quality wall post, install social networking widgets on your blog)
You can write a post about top bloggers in your niche, in this way ,you will get their attention.You can ask another blogger to post on your blog as guest.
try to find the blog which related to your niche post some good comments this can raise ur target audience ....
Try to find blogs related to your niche, also using facebook can work with this. however, when you invite people to your blog it is best to offer something in return, such as a Free Report related to the niche or some sort of discount if you are offering services. This helps people stay longer on your blog and hopefully they'll read your articles. Another way is to ask other bloggers if you can guest post on their blog. This way they'll give you some of their traffic.
There is no such efficient way to do this. Only thing we can do is write good informative articles then blog comment this articles with other blogs and also share in social networking sites.
Regardless of websites or blogs, if you need to grow your traffic and promote your blogs, you have to build your own virtual community. Start commenting other people's blogs, give constructive comments. I had the same problems as you. But once I started commenting, my blog traffic grow and get a lot of loyal readers. Few things you can do, join related groups in Facebook, Linkedin, and engage in twitter. Solve other people's problems. Join social bookmarking sites. This definitely help rather than just wait and do nothing. If you want to increase your blogs traffic, answering searches' questions will help. Wordtracker has a tool to generate what searches ask on search engines for related keywords. Answer their questions will increase your blog traffic. But if a lot of people answer the same questions, your blog won't come up on search engines as well, so build your virtual community by commenting other people's blogs, forums, join social networking sites and social bookmarking sites. Theses tips definitely help!
If you can find similar blogs in your niche, the more useful comments you leave the more folks will realise that you know what you are talking about, and are more likely to visit your site, ofcourse ensure that the comments add value, or else they will simply be removed by the admin
